 7AMD display engine is partially shared with other operating systems; for this
 8reason, our Display Core Driver is divided into two pieces:
 9
101. **Display Core (DC)** contains the OS-agnostic components. Things like
11   hardware programming and resource management are handled here.
122. **Display Manager (DM)** contains the OS-dependent components. Hooks to the
13   amdgpu base driver and DRM are implemented here.
14
15The display pipe is responsible for "scanning out" a rendered frame from the
16GPU memory (also called VRAM, FrameBuffer, etc.) to a display. In other words,
17it would:
18
191. Read frame information from memory;
202. Perform required transformation;
213. Send pixel data to sink devices.
